    2006 DAMASCUS APPLICANTS

    There isn't any rule except that you are obliged to inform the visa office but no timeline is given. I renewed my passport on Jan 2010 and sent them an email asking what to do, they (Damascus back then) replied that I should fax, email or post a copy of my new passport which I didn't because I...

    Right, when you're at this stage it doesn't mean rejection, it means they will get their visas soon So far the bad "decision made" instances = rejection I've heard of were people few months after sending their updated docs

    News from the Iranian forum: Status of two applicants (one Jan 2005 and one Nov 2004) was changed to "decision made" twenty days after them sending in their passports to get visa stamped. Both applicants sent in their update docs in Sept 2009, did medicals in Sept~Oct 2010 and received PPR in...

    2006 DAMASCUS APPLICANTS

    I think your take on this is quite valid, I was reviewing the dates recorded in the Iranian forum and it matches your hypothesis. Based on those records our 2005 applicants were mostly transferred to Warsaw around June and July 2009, received their update request mostly on September 2009...

    well thats something because from what I hear your status would have changed to "decision made" if you've failed to get enough points. your status will remain "in process" till your medicals are in and they've reviewed it.

    2006 DAMASCUS APPLICANTS

    You would need a credit/debit card to pay someone in Paypal, you don't need to have a Paypal account but if you do the process will be easier. To open one you will again need a credit/debit card. Email caips.ca and ask for alternative payment methods, probably they can give you a bank account...

    That pdf file is editable and you can fill it directly, then print it out, sign it and email them a scanned copy. From the time they receive your payment and process your request it'll take about 6 to 8 weeks to receive the results. I sent my request on March 10th and got the results on April...

    Hi Armintaba I don't have a credit card either, I just asked a friend abroad to pay the fee for me through Paypal. There are dozens of local providers out there that will pay for you with their Paypal account, try googling them. Since you are not paying yourself, ask caips.ca for an invoice...

    2006 DAMASCUS APPLICANTS

    well I did have over 10 years work experience when I filed in 2006 so that alone would have covered the requirement, but I changed my career path a few years ago after applying for SW class and sent them the letters and certificates during the update stage. They've indeed taken this matter into...

    Thanks Youskal. I'm Iranian, absolutely no idea about the medicals just that based on the routine of previous years - if at all applies to us - they should start sending out medicals during Q3

    Thanks buddy. I did it through caips.ca the basic service costs 40 Canadian dollars, however you can request this report through any Canadian resident (relatives, friends, anyone living there) for only 5 Canadian dollars. This link immipedia.ca/Ordering_FOSS_and_CAIPS_notes covers the steps.

    Salam Armintaba I got 21 points for employment history and 16 for my IELTS score (Listening 9.0, Reading 8.5, Writing 7.0, Speaking 9.0, total band score 8.5). I was a bit worried about the work experience point as my university major is in engineering but my last job description (last couple...
